Why Security, Development, and Quality need to be part of the same conversation

Driving greater velocity and agility in the delivery process is critical today. As you move code from Dev into Ops, you need to ensure that the code is not only functionally complete, but also is secure and performs as expected. With the automation of delivery, you also need to understand how the current state of Ops is relevant for the work done in Dev. Rapid and error-free delivery of features that are secure is now an expectation. Attend this webinar and learn how you can ensure security while delivering quality applications with greater velocity.

Join us and hear about:
• Best practices for continuous quality in the delivery pipeline
• Why security must be part of the conversation from the start
• The importance of collaboration across all teams
• How Micro Focus can help you ensure security and quality across the disparate components of the delivery pipeline

Release Management, much like Waterfall Development, is no longer drawn out over months or sometimes years. With the advent of Agile, the goal is to release more often and as a result, be more efficient. How do we achieve these expectations when we must adhere to regulations, policies, security requirements and complex technology? DevOps is commonly the answer, but what does that mean?

This session will provide an overview of some of the DevOps best practices that customers are implementing to ensure their frequent release cycles are shorter and more successful.

Attend this webinar and you will:
• Understand how to define and coordinate Release Management activities with other DevOps activities, such as Continuous Integration/Delivery/Testing
• Learn best practices for release process governance
• Discover how to gain visibility into your release process

SAP modernization presents a combination of business challenges and technical challenges, both of which must be overcome in order to achieve a successful transformation. For best results, the business experts and the technical experts must work together on the transformation, and in particular, when testing updates to the SAP system. Scriptless testing is the most effective way to bridge the gap between those with an intimate understanding of the business processes, and those more at home with the technical details of SAP.

This webinar will explore some of the challenges of testing SAP systems, and explain how scriptless test automation, using Micro Focus Business Process Testing (BPT), allows business users to define the processes, flows and data to be tested, while automation engineers implement the automated components that form each test’s building blocks.

Takeaways
• Understand the challenges of testing of critical systems such as SAP
• Discover how scriptless testing can bring technical and business experts together to create effective automated tests
• Understand how the components underlying scriptless test can be reused across different tests, and maintained with ease

With dozens of web browsers and thousands of mobile devices needed to validate your app, functional testing must evolve to stay on time. Without a test lab to help, running down the clock is inevitable and today's testing tools need to do more than write and maintain tests. Teams need to run tests across many browsers and devices, gather actionable insight when issues are detected, and focus their testing effort for the greatest impact.

In this webinar, you'll learn:
• How to prioritize which environments to test
• How to run your app across mobile devices and browsers
• Insights to identify and resolve false positive errors after a test run

By the end of this session, you'll be able to make the most of your cross-browser testing and add some time back into your day.

DevOps is about balancing tools, processes, and people. As teams roll out tooling to support their DevOps processes, developers are experiencing huge gains in the form of increased velocity and operational efficiencies. In some cases, though, this can come with a price in the form of reduced quality assurance.

Quality is the entire team’s responsibility, but QA professionals know the processes and techniques needed to right-size testing, identify and track bugs quickly, and discover the root of a problem.

This web seminar will use real-world examples to show how virtualization, cloud technologies, artificial intelligence, and analytics are converging to lower the barriers to delivering functional and performance automation at scale.

Are you getting that mobile moment? Do you know what your users are really experiencing when using your app? Do you wonder where the bad rating comes from you got after the latest release of your app?

Mobile user experience is actually very complicated to catch and measure, it is multi-facetted. In this webinar we will cover the most important aspects of a 5-Star mobile user experience and how you can really measure and monitor it.

In a live example we will then show you how easy it is to get it done.

Mobile Users don’t accept bad performance or dysfunctional applications and abandon bad apps with a wipe of their hand. Bad mobile applications are far more complex to test given the fragmentation of devices out there and different network conditions in real life that are difficult to simulate in development labs.

In this webinar we cover the Micro Focus approach to these issues and provide a live showcase on how to secure a stable app that exactly does what it is supposed to do.

In this webinar we will provide an overview on how Micro Focus Mobile Lifecycle Solutions enable enterprises to build, test, secure and monitor mobile and web applications that provide a superior user experience. The new SLA of any truly digital enterprise.
